treason - cross (lucifer verses) lyrics

[verse 1]
cross close to the heart was a spear stuck in my chest
a loss broke me apart brought the fear under my breath
i was my own jesus, broke to pieces by the whips and scorn
disappointment was the nails, frail ideals were the crown of thorns
king of my own castle, brought on by the thick headed
made pale with thoughts of h-ll with dreams of a rich heaven
pews are now made few, but only for dim martyrs
no longer my kin, our only sin was a fool’s barter
to live with a cruel father, we traded in our dignity
our resources aborted for distorted divinity
priests restoring the ministries, less for the wine
as a kid, the thought was livid, served to wreck the design
had visions of living in clouds with dead mothers
after accepting tradition, now i witness the red covers
was a christian, i was dipped in water, swift to author prayer
prepared to worship and honour the sickest monster, forever longer scared

[chorus]
if the tables turned and i learned hate before divinity
i would have loved the church as well and worshipped the h-ll they’d given me

if the tables turned and i had learned satan didn”t betray from jealousy
today i’d praise rebellion of a creator who neglected him selfishly

[verse 2]
my genesis was venomous like the snake in the tree
generous to decadent, never left before peace
never rest, dead from stress, , took the soul from my cheeks
took cover and dress to smother my flesh but suffered the coldest defeat
i’m told it was me. i need jesus, i seem speechless, a priest said i had no reason to stay, so i seceded
hale satan, spraying hatred, spewing grungy, flawed philosophies
with a halo over my head but it was crooked like apostrophes
thought they had me down to a “t”, i felt like a dotted “i”
who acted like a g for pride but it was all a lie
sell a soul for a deal, wanted to take a life for revenge
loyal, never squeal, take a knife for a friend
swallowed the truth for my grandmother ever since i was ten
up until 17, no more god to resent
now i hope she dies before she ever finds out
and preaches that i’m blind while i’m shining with doubt
